Judge Adams, secretary OF the State Histori-
cal Society. has just completed compilation of
the recent municipal vote, which was the first
one taken under the new law giving to women
the right to vote. The compilation shows that
in 232 cities of the State which voted, there was
a total of 90 1914 votes. of which Ga, SAG male
votes and 25,348 female votes. Judge Adams's
report is accompanied by the following state
ment:
:.Ihave been most thoroughly impressed with
the conviction that the people of Kansas at last
springs election com pletely solved the woman
suffrage question. 1t is no longer question
whether women want to vots-they do want to
vote. This is proved by the fact that they have
voted at the first opportunity given them. They
voted with intelligent. Jealous earnest inter
est in the good of the community in which they
have their homes. IL the issue involved in the
election of any town affecting merely
the local m aterial interest OF the community,
they voted with good judgment and for the com
mon welfare. If the question was as to bet

other reforms. they voted prudently Tor
what seemed to be the good of all demanded II
it was for q change of an administration noto-
riously involved in speculatiops with water
works other corporations. they voted to de-
liver the city from such corrupt entang!em
If political parties, controlled by saloon in
fuence, put up candidates with the odor of
whisky their garments, the women reouked
the party managers and voted for candidates
who would better promote the moral welfare or
the community. In every instance they voted for

nifty from those demoralziug Influences and
temptations from which every good woman
would deliver those of her own household. l

A & reat Record.

The record of the Anaconda smeit.
er for the month of June has been
made up. The production was great
er than ever before in the history Of
the works during the same period.
Should the June output be equaled
during the remaining six months of
the year, the fine copper product Of
the Anaconda will exceed that OF the
entire year for 1856, which was up
wards Of 55,OOO,000 pounds. Furth
ermore, it may be stated that during
June the Anaconda produced more
copper than the Calumet & Hecla.
Tamarack and Quincy mines of Mich
igan, combined, and almost as much
as all the copper properties in Mich
igan. This fact may be unpalstable
in Boston, bnt II Is indisputable. The
Calumet g. Hecla cut has closed down
a few Michigan copper mines, but it
simply stimulated operations by the
great copper concerns OF Butte. The
